No the easiest job in out current outdoor temperatures, no heating in that room ðŸ˜. Orange stain is from Stumac & have some water based finishes to try out […]

Ampeg SVT Classic repaired & ready for home. Dry joint on a capacitor in the bias circuit caused some random noise issues prompting the owner to bring it in for repair. She usually sits on top of an Ampeg 6×10, the Hartke in photo was just my load speaker for the repair. #amprepair #bridgnorthbusiness #shropshirebusiness […]

Fretwork on the Fender Telecaster. Came In with a lot of flat topped frets & a complaint of notes choking above the 12th fret. Gave it a light dress along the whole neck then reformed the crowns & polished. Restring with D’Addario 10-46 & check the intonation. Compensated saddles have already been installed. #guitartech #guitar […]

At some point the retaining nut from the front socket has been lost so all the stresses of plugging & unplugging were transferred to the board pins, eventually resulting in failure of the soldering. Due to the fact that this manufacturer has used a socket which would […]

Boss amplifier de-brand request @shrop.rock.doctor. What was a simple request from the customer turned out to be a little more involved than initially suspected. To remove the plastic badges from the amps front panel required removal of the chassis as the facia was bolted in the centre from inside the cabinet. Once removed the badges […]

Continuing with the Ampeg SVT Classic the issue now appears resolved. Initially believed to be a bad tube the root cause was a met. Poly 400v capacitor (C10) in the bias circuit.
